Novelist is a ‘Street Politician’ on new David Cameron-sampling track

Novelist has shared a new track titled 'Street Politician'.

It sees the Lewisham don send for the establishment, heavily sampling a David Cameron speech soundbite ("Keeping people safe is the first duty of government") before dismantling and challenging the words with polemical bars about governmental oppression and abandonment.

The raw beat that features police sirens and gunshots was co-produced by Novelist alongside Nick Hook.

This isn't the first time Novelist has referenced the Prime Minister in his work; he uploaded the instrumental 'David Cameron Riddim' to SoundCloud last month.

Check out 'Street Politician' below.
